Monarch of Darkness

"Looks like the Black family is prepared", general Will commented with a chilly tone. 

"It is obvious. They are the most powerful family besides the royal family. So, it is expected from them to have some cards", general Pedro said in an easy going manner. 

Suddenly, two powerful aura came out from the Black family estate. It put a heavy pressure on the side of royal family.

"Two Law sea stage experts", general Pedro exclaimed with hint of fear in his voice. The smile on his face disappeared as a cautious look appeared on his face.

"Can the royal ancestor hold up?", general Pedro asked in a worried tone. Before general Will could answer, another powerful force came out from the outside of the Black family.

The warriors from the royal family and Black family stood stunned by the powerful auras coming from the Law sea stage experts.

"Uncle Duan, looks like you also want to join in the fun", Ether Jackson spoke with a smile. A surprised look apppeared on the face of Evan as he saw one after another Law sea stage experts appearing.

A old man with a long beard appeared Infront of Ether Jackson and Evan. He had a calm appearance but Evan could see a hint of excitement on his face.

"Oh, is this little fellow Nathan's son?", the old man Infront of Evan asked.

"Yes", Ether Jackson replied with a smile.

"Greetings senior. I am Evan", Evan bowed slightly towards the old yet strong looking man.

"Ether, let me test out them first. Seems like your guess is correct this time. Outsider forces are interfering in the matter of northern land", the old man spoke and without waiting for the reply of Ether Jackson, he flew towards the Black family estate.

Evan looked at the powerful looking old man and a thought appeared in his mind. "Great grand uncle, has senior Duan come from the southern land?", Evan looked towards his great grand uncle.

"Yes, why are you asking?", Ether Jackson threw a confused glance at Evan. It was such an important time. Yet, Evan was asking about such a unrelated question. So, Ether Jackson felt confused.

"Why there names are different from the people of Northern land?", Evan asked. He could recall that their Eternal moon empire was attacked by gods and people from some sects and powerful clans. The name of the powerful clans were Bai, Yang, Duan and Yan.

He used to believe that all humans had such peculiar family names but he felt confused when his memory returned because the people of Thousand swords kingdom had similar name to devils.

"Our northern land is more ancient than these people. Moreover, previously northern land was isolated from the other parts of the continent. So, people had different culture and family names than the southern land", Ether Jackson replied while keeping an eye on the battlefield.

Evan still hasd some confusion but the explanation of his great grand uncle managed to clear most of his doubt. So, his gaze returned to the battlefield again.

The battlefield was cam as the Profound transformation realm experts and Core Condensation realm experts were not fighting eachother at this moment. All of their gaze was focused on the sky where old man Duan was standing at the moment.

"They are a doing a soul battle!", Evan immediately guessed after looking at old man Duan. Currently, the eyes of if man Duan were shut close and he had a frown on his aged face.

"The other guy is indeed decisive. He has used soul attack immediately after noticing uncle Duan", Ether Jackson murmured.

After sometime old man Duan opened his eyes. A cold glint appeared on his eyes as he glanced below.

"Bastard, what is the meaning of sneaking around. If you have gut then come out and face this old man", old man Duan shouted.

The earlier attack was indeed sinister. If he couldn't respond in time, then his soul would have taken damage. Thinking about it, old man Duan's murderous intent soared up.

He made a hand seal and heaven and earth energy gathered around him.

"Earth destroying palm", he roared out and a five meter long palm appeared out of thin air. It rapidly descended towards the Black family estate.

A long air blade flew out from the Black family estate but it didn't manage to change anything. It could only slow down the large palm for a fleeting moment. The large palm landed on the innermost section of the Black family estate. 

"Boom!", the luxurious looking buildings turned into rubble after the palm descended.

"Old man Duan, it is surprising that you are still alive", a comment full of sarcasm could be heard as two person showed up in the air. One was a frail looking middle-aged man and the other one was a old man with flowing long hair.

"Daniel brat, you can't be arrogant just because you have managed to reach the Law sea realm. Today I will teach you a lesson for your arrogance", old man Duan yelled at old man with long hair.

"We will see whether you can do anything or not", the old man with long flowing hair snickered and took out a long sword. He immediately attacked after taking out his weapon. Five crimson coloured energy swords came flying towards old man Duan.

Old man Duan waved his hand and five energy swords appeared out of thin air. They directly cut off the crimson coloured energy swords. Old man Duan didn't attack immediately as he threw a cautious glance at the middle-aged cultivator who was also a Law sea stage expert.

"Uncle Duan, don't worry about him. His opponent is me", Ether Jackson spoke as he sent Evan towards the ground. Then he mysteriously appeared near old man Duan.

The eyes of the middle-aged man widened as a cautious look appeared on his relaxed face after seeing Ether Jackson. After a look, he immediately knew that the person Infront of him was at a level higher than him.

He cupped his hand at Ether Jackson and spoke, "Fellow daoist, how about we end today's matter peacefully? Nothing major is yet to happen. So, we can still sit and talk it down".
